API Key error?

Post by simonpeter2 »

Is there a way to find out what 3rd party program SAB is sending the error for?

WARNING: API Key missing, please enter the api key from Config->General into your 3rd party program:

Basically I have 3 3rd parties using an api key, sickbeard, couchpotato and sabconnect++ , the kicker is all 3 have the api key setup and all 3 work fine? Is it possible I have to add the api key to one of my search provider sites like NZBmatrix? Or is this just a false warning and is a glitch?

Any software wanting to communicate with SABnzbd through its API needs to use SABnzbd's api-key.
The nzbmatrix is not related, however SABnzbd needs it when you want it to fetch NZBs from that site.
